chmod 400 key.pem
ssh -i key.pem ec2-user@x.x.x.x // get piblic ip of system 
# exit from server now we are able to ssh to remote server 
# now add local public key to server  [Important step]
cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh -i  key.pem  ec2-user@x.x.x.x "cat>> .ssh/authorized_keys"

ssh -i key.pem ec2-user@x.x.x.x
# enter to the remote system console 
mkdir app.git
cd app.git
git init --bare

So not much going on here, all we do is create an empty repository and then leave. Now, on the local machine, you do something like the following:

Access remote repo :

.ssh >  git clone ssh://ec2-user@x.x.x.x/home/ec2-user/app.git
Cloning into 'myproject'...
warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository.
Checking connectivity... done.
 git:(master) git remote -v
origin ssh://ec2-user@x.x.x.x/home/ec2-user/app.git (fetch)
origin ssh://ec2-user@x.x.x.x/home/ec2-user/app.git (push)

Create POST Receive Hook

Crate POST receive push Hook
chmod +x hooks/post-receive

chmod +x hooks/post-receive
GIT_WORK_TREE=/home/ec2-user/myproject
export GIT_WORK_TREE
git checkout -f
cd /home/ec2-user/myproject
sudo npm install
forever start app.js

Here we go.. we are able to setup bare repo on server and accessing it from application containers.
